print join( ',', @array );
| Answer: How do I print an array with commas separating each element? contributed by ar0n $, = ',';
print @array;
$, is the
output field separator: print will insert whatever string has been assigned to $, between all of its arguments.
Note that if you use this technique, you should make your assignment to
$, temporary by doing
local $, = ',';

Observe the difference in effects between $" and $, —
$\ = "\n";
my @a = qw( One Two Three );
{
local $, = ',';
print @a;
print "@a";
}
{
local $" = ',';
print @a;
print "@a";
}
Output:
One,Two,Three
One Two Three
OneTwoThree
One,Two,Three

For completeness, here's a verbose solution:
my $x;
my @a = qw(one two three);
print "$a[$_-1], " while $x++ < $#a;
print "$a[$#a]";

Here's another way:
my $x = 0;
printf "$array[$x-1]%s",
$x <= $#array ? "," : "\n"
while $array[$x++];
It puts a newline instead of a comma after the last element.
